I found a General Electric 30A/240V single phase fusible disconnect switch that was used as a local service disconnect for a hot water heater. It was fed from a 30A/2P breaker out of a nearby breaker panel. I noticed it had (2) 1/2" pieces of copper pipe installed in place of fuses. I'm sure the National Electric Code book would site this as a code violation. Would they accept dummy fuses ? Do you replace the copper pipe with fuses or replace the switch with a non-fusible type?
